The Meaning of the Numbers 1-9

1 - God, as in the Trinitarian God, or God the Father - the first person of the Godhead.

2 - Unity, or God the Son - the second person of the Godhead.

3 - The Trinity, or God the Holy Spirit - the third person of the Godhead.

4 - The World or Creation - i.e. the 4 Seasons, the 4 Cardinal Directions etc.

5 - The Grace of God, noting that Grace is always connected with the Holy Spirit and can mean either an empowering to do something in accordance with God's Will, or to be the recipient of God's undeserved Favour through the power of the Holy Spirit. Significantly, this connection with God's Spirit is first seen on day 5 of creation, when for the first time creatures come into being that as the KJV Bible states "hath life" where the original Hebrew word for life was נפש or Nephesh, which the bible consistently uses in connection with God's Spirit; Breath, Life and Soul - see Gen 1:20 below for this first reference:

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the ||moving †creature that hath life, and †fowl that may fly above the earth in the †open firmament of heaven. 21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. 23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

6 - Man or Mankind in hebrew אָדָם֙ or Adam
